Kristine Alonso

Updated: Sep 18, 2024

Semaglutide is a medication that has been developed as a treatment for type 2 diabetes, a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide.


Diabetes is considered a lifestyle disease where in most cases, diabetes can drastically change with great and effective lifestyle changes. It is believed that diabetes can drastically change by how lifestyle and diet can improve, too. Semaglutide is a promising medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, offering improved blood glucose control, weight loss, and a lower risk of cardiovascular events.


Who qualifies for semaglutide?

For individuals with type 2 diabetes:

  • Have a body mass index (BMI) of 27 kg/m2 or higher

  • Have inadequate glycemic control (elevated blood sugar levels) despite the use of other diabetes medications

For individuals without diabetes (for weight loss)

  • Have a BMI of 30 kg/m2 or higher (obesity)

  • Have a BMI of 27 kg/m2 or higher (overweight) and at least one weight-related condition, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea, or other obesity-related health conditions.

How does Semaglutide affect the body?

Semaglutide acts like something your body naturally produces. It also helps lower blood sugar levels especially for those people with insulin resistance. For people with type-2 diabetes, it helps manage their blood sugar, and for those looking to shed some pounds, it aids in weight loss.

Professional, caring and empathetic service. Combine this with the accessibility between patient and doctor and you cannot go wrong with En Vogue Med and Dr Valino Stock! Very happy to have such a great experience.

Dr. Valino -Stock has been my doctor for many years . She genuinely cares for her patients and their welfare! She responds quickly to messages and phone calls. She really knows her stuff and if I could give her 100 stars I would. I have recommended her to many people and will continue to do so!

Doctor's Appointment

T. R

Dr. Stock is the best of the best. She is patient, kind, empathetic, intelligent, and thorough with excellent bedside manner. She is invested in your health and wellness and extremely proactive. I have never been so at ease/confident in my care provider as I am with her. I signed up for her concierge service, and let me tell you she is worth it. I could not recommend her more highly and tell anyone looking for a new primary to go to her. She is the epitome of what healthcare should be.

Operating Room

D.S.

Dr. Valino-Stock is able to provide the care she always aspired to in her previous situation. Her appointments are now longer so she can always explore all of my health care needs. There is also plenty of time and attention for my questions and concerns. This extra service is made possible by two things. Her deep commitment and compassion will not allow her to short-shrift her patients. Even outside of our appointments, she is readily available and quickly responds.
